Divide by zero What is the output of the following program?
Divide by zero What is the output of the following program?
Error or Exception o A programs that work when everything is expected is a good start. o When unexpected conditions encountered, it gets really challenging. o Two types of problem: Programmer mistakes and genuine problems. o Errors are dealt by finding and fixing them, by using some codes or numbers.
Error Handling Error handling refers to the response and recovery procedures from error conditions present in a software application. o Anticipation o Detection o Resolution
C - Error Handling o C programming does not provide direct support for error handling o Then how? C is a system programming language
C - Error Handling o A function returns -1 or NULL value in case of any error o Global variable errno is set with the error code o Methods and variables regarding error handling defined in error. h header file o The return value can be used to check error while programming.
What is errno? o Whenever a function call is made, a variable named errno is associated with it o errno is global variable o Used to identify which type of error was encountered while function execution o Each value errno can take, has some meaning
List of Error numbers errno value Error 1 Operation not permitted 2 No such file or directory 3 No such process 4 Interrupted system call 5 I/O error 6 No such device or address 7 Argument list too long 8 Exec format error 9 Bad file number 10 No child processes 11 Try again 12 Out of memory 13 Permission denied
Error handling functions o C uses the following functions to represent error messages associated with errno o perror(): This function returns a string to pass to it along with the textual representation of current errno value. o strerror(): This function is defined in string. h library and this method return a pointer to the string representation of the present errno value.
Error handling Example-1 #include <stdio. h> #include <errno. h> #include <string. h> int main () { FILE *fp; // If a file, which does not exists, is opened, we will get an error fp = fopen("IWill. Return. Error. txt", "r"); printf("Value of errno: %d n ", errno); printf("The error message is : %s n", strerror(errno)); perror("Message from perror"); return 0; }
Program Exit Status o A common practice to exit with exit status. o EXIT_SUCCESS in case of program coming out after a successful operation o EXIT_FAILURE in case of an error condition. o exit() function is used to inform the calling function about the error. o EXIT_SUCCESS and EXIT_FAILURE macros are defined in stdlib. h header file.
Error handling Example-2 #include <stdio. h> #include <stdlib. h> void main() { int ddend = 60, dsor = 0, q; if( dsor == 0){ printf("Divide by zero error n"); exit(EXIT_FAILURE ); } q = ddend / dsor; printf("Value of quotient = %d", q); exit(EXIT_SUCCESS); }
